Our in-depth yet highly compressed PAX Prime 2011 coverage including Borderlands 2, The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim, BioShock Infinite, Rise of Nightmares, Retro/Grade, Joe Danger: The Movie, QUBE, Life is Crime, Mass Effect comics, musicians Darren Korb (Bastion), Matt Chainsaw Chaney (Comic Jumper, The Gunstringer) and Jonathan Coulton (Portal, Portal 2) and more.

We go down the rabbit hole to review Sucker Punch the movie, Alice: Madness Returns and Bastion.

We compile the highlights of E3 2011 - 3 press conferences in less than 12 minutes! - and then review L.A. Noire and share the evolution of music in the Grand Theft Auto series.

We review the Astro A40 gaming headset, take a spoiler-free spin through the world of Portal 2 and examine Hulu Plus: the good (clips), the bad (ads) and the things that will need to be fixed before we'll buy it!

We celebrate the music of the Dead Island trailer, explore literal versions, play iOS games The 7th Guest, Atari Greatest Hits, Puzzle Quest II, Sword & Sworcery EP, Lego Harry Potter and Slingo Supreme, and review the classic and new You Don't Know Jack.

We examine the music of our Busy Gamer News 2010 game of the year, Fallout: New Vegas, review it and discuss where its first DLC went off the tracks. We also name our game of the year runners up, all worthy of your time.

We tackle Kinectimals (too cute or just right?), Kinect exercise games Dance Central, Zumba Fitness and Your Shape: Fitness Evolved, Assassin's Creed Brotherhood, Enslaved, Rock Band 3, Phineas and Ferb and more.
